Chapter 69: Blue Dragon
"Hold on... are you perchance, Tiamat?", I ask her after taking the aura she''s giving off into consideration.
The dragon, which I assume is Tiamat, changes her posture and bellows,
"You dare call me as such!"
Not liking her attitude, I attempt to use Indoctrination on her, but it doesn''t work.
Of course, it wouldn''t work as it''s in the tertiary section... Let me switch it with copse real quick.
Done.
Now then,
"Your insolence is what lead to your demise. Don''t go begging me to spare youter,"
I say that, but I''m not nning to kill her. Having a strong dragon familiar beside me is way more interesting than being known as the yer of said dragon.
Reaching my right arm out, I use Creation to produce a sword with a golden hilt and a red jewel in it.
The sword gives off a strong holy aura that seems like it would incinerate devils if you tap one with it.
Tiamat, who had a prideful posture a while ago, is keenly staring at the sword in my hand with a battle-ready posture.
I''m sure this splendid sword, Ascalon, will be pretty effective on her.
"Why do you have that sword?" she inquires cautiously.
Beaming a smile at her, I shrug my shoulders and ask her,
"Would you believe me if I told you that I created it?"
The giant dragon doesn''t respond and just stares at me, cautiously waiting for me to make a move.
"I thought so," I say before using Blink to appear behind her.
She immediately senses my presence, but before she can react, I pierce her back with the sword while channeling a little Destruction into the tip.
Immediately, I hear Tiamat roar in pain as she moves away from me.
Using Telekinesis, I pull the sword out of her back, and say to her while chuckling,
"Ohe on, I''m just messing you. I didn''te here to kill you."
I then destroy Ascalon and wait for her response, which is her dashing at me full-speed.
Hah~
The moment she is about to collide with me, I lightly tap her and use Vector Maniption to reflect all of her vectors while also amplifying them.
This results in the giant dragon to suddenlyunch into the distance, crash into several trees, before finally crashing into the ground.
Slowly flying over to where she is, I ask her with a deadpan expression,
"Willing to talk now?"
I get no response for about four minutes before she suddenly changes from a dragon into a humanoid appearance.
Should I take this as an affirmation? Probably.
Landing in front of her, I observe her keenly.
Her appearance is rather beautiful. Long blue hair, as well as dark blue eyes. wless skin and body form. Might as well mention the fact that she has huge knockers.
Tiamat is standing with arms crossed and brows furrowed as she looks at me. So this is the second dragon I''ve met sinceing here, huh? Now that I think about it,
"Hey Ddraig, you there buddy?"
[Finally! What''s wrong with you!? Do you know how long I''ve been trying to make contact with you!]
An irritated voice resounds within my head as Ddraig begins toin about something.
"What are you talking about?"
[I don''t know what you did, but you made me unable to make contact with you or anything for that matter. You''ve forcefully taken the Boosted Gear and awakened me, so at least try to talk with me!]
"Look, I have no idea what you''re talking about, b-" a voice suddenly interrupts me,
"Is that Ddraig? The Red Dragon Emperor, Ddraig?
Looking at Taiamat who has a weird expression on her face, I nod my head.
"You''re the host of the Boosted Gear?" she continues.
"You could say so," I reply.
Tiamat then proceeds toin about how Ddraig took her treasures and has yet to return them. As for the dragon in question, Ddraig ims that he lost them in the process of fighting with Albion.
Once I asked him about Albion, he began to exin about his rivalry with the White Dragon Emperor.
The story was rather entertaining, but it didn''t seem like Tiamat enjoyed being ignored. However, she didn''t attempt to do anything.
It seems like she''s already learned of the difference in our strengths.
Well, it''s either that or she just doesn''t want to do anything yet.
"Tiamat, I want you to be my familiar," I clearly state, "in return, I will return you the treasures that Ddraig has lost."
She smirks a little and asks,
"And how are you nning to do that?"
Grinning, I lift my arm and snap my fingers. The next moment, several old relics and treasures appear in the air.
"Like this," I say, "My powers are rted to creation. I don''t have enough power yet, but when I do, I will be able to produce specific items."
Having learned more about my Creation through Irene, I confidently offer a bargain. That''s not the end of it,
"It''s either that, or I brainwash you to follow me."
Upon hearing my statement, she scowls as she says in a threatening tone,
"And you expect that to work on me, the strongest of the Five Great Dragon Kings?"
Unperturbed by the cold aura she''s letting out, I slowly walk to her and activate my Deity form.
{Four minutes left.}
Ignoring Irene''s voice, I softly say to Tiamat who''s currently dazed,
"Want to see if it does?"
I have three choices to make. The first one is to break her mind in one way or another and make her follow me like a puppet. However, I don''t believe that a lifeless being following me would bring me any form of joy.
The second choice is to go away and wait for Indoctrination to be strong enough to have an effect on her and return then. Once again, I don''t want the result thates with this one.
As for the third and final choice, I get her to willingly agree to be my familiar. Which is the one I am going with right now.
I sure hope that I wouldn''t have to resort to the others.
"I''ll do it," she says after a while.
Canceling Deification, I embrace her and joyfully dere,
"I knew that you''d make the right choice!"
She pushes me away and says, a little irritated,
"Stay back."
Not minding it, I brush my hair with hand and say nonchntly,
"Let''s get going then."
